Seat Brackets

Binary Recaro seat lowering brackets for EVO VII-IX

The Original – Binary seat lowering brackets for the stock Recaro Seats found in Mitsubishi Lancer Evolutions VII-IX.  These work on all global models of the CT9A Chassis, including: USDM, JDM, EDM etc; any EVO 7-9.

These brackets replace the existing factory mounting brackets and allow your seat to be dropped by 1.5 inches retaining the stock sliders.   The improvement in driver position IS MASSIVE.  The 1.5” drop makes all the difference and creates a true motorsports driving experience.  Your eyes will now look directly through the dash and make you focus down the track instead of directly in-front of your bumper.  Your arms will have a more natural path to the steering wheel and the shifter allowing you to comfortably perform fast paced motorsports driving techniques.  The lower position of the hips will create more clearance for your legs beneath the steering wheel giving you room for heel-toe downshifts, as well as better alignment to the pedals.  An obvious benefit is helmet clearance for us tall folks.  Overall the car will finally feel like a proper sports car, or even a go-kart, you won’t feel like you’re driving from a high-chair.

These are the original EVO seat lowering brackets – with hundreds sold and tested throughout the world.  These are not knock-offs made from cheesy unfinished stainless steel finish.

– CAD designed.

-  CNC laser cut.

-  CNC formed.

-  Powder Coated.

-  Included all required hardware.

-  Install with simple hand tools in under an hour.

-  Creates a true motorsports driving position:

- increased helmet clearance

- more clearance for heel-toe

– improved pedal alignment

– keeps eyes looking down the track

– allows for better turning and shifting response

HEAD TO THE MAIN BINARY SITE TO ORDER THESE!


NOTES:

A few positions fully forward (for really short folks) are not compatible with the brackets.  The sliders end up stopping against the chassis mounting hardware.  So be aware of that if you run your seat all the way to the front.  People 5′6″ have them installed and are still able to use them in their preferred seating position, so it shouldn’t really effect too many people.

Harness eyebolts from aftermarket harness may have clearance issues, it depends on the brand and your seating position.   This can typically be resolved by minor grinding of the eyebolt and belt mount bolt.  OR, you can use a Binary Eyebolt which replaces the chassis mounting bolt for the inside rear bracket – found under the center console.  This requires running without the center console.

Here are a few reviews taken from literally hundreds of satisfied customers.

just put driver side in today. BEST mod yet!!!! I’m 6′3″ and can’t properly use the arm rest (I have to lean to the side). I have better visibility, and it “feels” better for me. Keep in mind I drive round trip about 100 miles/day, so I spend a lot of time in the car.

Installed my new brackets today and couldn’t be happier right now, these brackets are great. I love the new seating position, I’m 5′11″ and for me the driving position is perfect, puts the steering wheel in a much better position in relation to the seat. I dont know why the car didn’t come this way from the factory. I wasn’t sure that the 1.5″ change would be noticeable but it definitely is. Great mod for the $$ and if anyone in the NY area wants to sit in it to see for your self just let me know.

This is one of the first mods I’ve done to the Evo. Going back and forth from my DSM to the Evo, I felt like I was driving a truck when I’d sit in the thing. haha.

I’m enjoying the Evo even more now. I was so excited I was making people sit in my seat at a local evo meet last night. You might be seeing a few more orders coming.

Overall……..excellent product Jared. I look forward to future products from you.
